After selecting the Cam Ward with the first overall pick on Thursday night, experts admitted that Sanders would soon follow as the second quarterback selected. Instead, Jackson Dart was taken in the second quarterback when New York giants traded back in the first round to take him to 25.
At the beginning of the second round, the New Orleans Saints used the 40th pick to take a toyer plow. Then, late in the third round, Seattle Sehox took Jalan Milro on 92 and then the Cleveland Brownes took Dillon Gabriel at 94.
Dart, Plow, Millro and Gabriel were estimated to go much later than Sanders by scouts and analysts, and in the initial estimates, Sanders were also going above the ward at number 1.
Sanders led the Big 12 conference with 4,134 passing yard and 37 touchdown pass and was named as Big 12 aggressive players of the year. In his 50 college games, Sanders threw 14,347 yards, 134 touchdowns and 27 for interception.

A quarterback of that honor to fall out of the third round is highly uncommon in NFL for the possibility.
Top probability like Sanders has seen shocking slides in the previous NFL draft. Aaron Roders slipped to the 25th overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft, and was passed by 49 residents for Alex Smith.
Patrick Mahors were not taken up to the 10th pick in the 2017 draft, and was passed by beer for Mich Turbiski. Nevertheless, at that time, Mahomes was less than a hypnotized possibility compared to Sanders.
Lamor Jackson fell all the way for the 32nd pick in the 2018 draft, after taking four other quarterbacks ahead of him.
But Sanders, who was once considered the top candidate to go to number 1 this year, is a historic anamoli, falling for three days of the draft.
To make cases worse for him and his family, Sanders was pranged by an imposter during a livestream on Friday night.
While he and his family had stroked their NFL draft party on Twitch on Friday night, Sanders was seen responding to a phone call that he believed that it was decided to decide to draft him from a general manager.
Then the caller told the curious young athlete that the sanders’ smile faded quickly and “he would have to wait for a while”.
The decision of NFL teams not to draft Sanders has inspired mass disputes and debate throughout the draft, and before the rumors of Sanders’ draft board collapse became public.
An unnamed NFL coach recently told NFL Network Sanders “was the worst formal interview that I have ever lived in my life.”
The coach said, “He is very entitled. He takes unnecessary sacks. He never plays on time. He has a terrible body language. He blames the teammates of the team.” “But the biggest thing is that he is not as good.”
Another long AFC executive echoed the feeling that said, “It was not very good in our interview. He wants to decide what he is going to do and what is the best for him. He makes you feel small.”
Cansus City chief superstar Patrick Mahms on Friday asked for Sanders’ draft slide in an X post, just wrote “crazy”.

President Donald Trump also joined the debate on Friday when he ripped the “stupid” NFL owners to pass the Star Colorado quarterbacks and allowed them to fall in the second round.
“What is wrong with NFL owners, are they stupid? Dion Sanders was a great college football player, and was even more in NFL. He is a very good coach, streetwaise and smart! So, Shedur, his quarterback son has unprecedented genes, unprecedented genes, and are ready for greatness,” Trump is written in one. , Truth social post,
“She must be raised immediately by a team that wants to win. Saying Saubhagya Shedur, and Namaste your wonderful father!”
Now, Sanders will have to wait for three days of the draft to listen to their names, if it is called at all.
However, he has expressed gratitude and patience throughout the process despite the dramatic slide.
On Friday night, in an X post, while the third round was over, Sanders thanked Go.
“Thank God for everything,” he wrote.
